FOUNDERS NOTE
Hi, I’m Sheila McRae and the Owner of Canvas 45 Web Design. I began designing and developing websites after spending nearly 25 years working for a corporation in both the business and IT areas. Today, I enjoy leveraging my expertise in UX design and agile development to create and deliver high-quality websites for clients across various industries. I also provide consulting services to help clients improve their business processes and systems, using my analytical skills and knowledge of CRM software.
Sheila helped us build a website for our nonprofit and could not have been more cooperative, creative and truly helpful throughout the process! She is the ultimate professional, knowledgable yet approachable, and best of all, always available for questions and ideas. She made us feel like important clients at all times, expressing enthusiasm for our project and offering her expertise in invaluable ways. I highly recommend Sheila and Canvas 45 for any website needs!

Collaborating with Canvas 45 on our website redesign was wonderfully hassle free. Sheila listened to our needs, wants and desires; organized a plan, then steadfastly set off creating a website far beyond our expectations.
Our redesign finished ahead of schedule and at no point was I given cause to doubt her technical expertise or left waiting on a response.

Working with Sheila has been such a pleasant experience. The site came out exactly as I was hoping and along the way, with all of the tweaks and changes I was making, I felt supported, encouraged, catered-to and also educated. Sheila went above and beyond - willing to research + learning new things in order to create the site I dreamed of, she was willing to meet me live, do video conferencing with me and used other online planning tools for us to move through the process of site building and launch easily. I feel confident in my own back-end use of my site as a result of the time Sheila took to train me. I feel also feel confident in the on-going service of my site being backed up by Canvas45 in case of any major issues. There is also comfort in knowing that Sheila is available in the future to assist with other major tweaks I may need to make. Overall, I am extremely satisfied beyond what I had hoped for and recommend Canvas45 whole-heartily.
